Harrison Ford's love life from secret affair to 20-year marriage and big age gap
Harrison Ford shot to fame in the Star Wars franchise as Han Solo, with his career going from strength to strength ever since.
At 80 years of age he is still at the top of his game, with the Hollywood hunk having starred in many movies as the leading man.
It is reported that the movies Harrison has starred in have grossed $5.4 billion in North America and more than $9.3 billion worldwide.
Harrison has starred in the likes of The Devil's Own, Indiana Jones, The Age Of Adeline, Raiders Of The Lost Ark and Blade Runner - among many other blockbusters.
A very private person, Harrison's personal life is kept on the down-low, with his love life very low-key.

Played by Carrie Fisher, Princess Leia is Han Solo's on-screen love interest - with that soon playing out in real life for the stars behind the characters.
Harrison and Carrie - who was 19 at the time - had a three month affair while filming the first movie, which was revealed in Carrie's memoir, The Princess Diarist.
Speaking about her romance with Harrison she told of how she was "shocked" that he fancied her, with her revealing that they stayed together "for the remainder of the film".
"It was never going to be more than that. I didn’t think it was going to be even that," she added in her chat with The Guardian.

At the time of publication Harrison is 80 years of age, while Calista is 58 - meaning their age-gap romance is seemingly a success for the pair.
They are the parents of Liam (born 2001), the son she adopted before meeting the Star Wars actor.
Gushing about his now-wife before they got hitched, Harrison spoke of how he was "in love" and thought that romantic love was "exciting and fulfilling".
Totally loved up, the couple live on an 800-acre ranch in Jackson, Wyoming, which is where Harrison has lived since the 1980s.
Recently, during Cannes Film Festival, Harrison gave his wife an adoring look in a very sweet snap, after 13 years of marriage, which left fans gushing over how "besotted" he still is.
